Photo Variance

Finish & Colour

Guitars are finished with many coats of lacquer, in addition to stains, burst patterns, and other coloured finishes. This process is often completed by hand and a “photo-perfect” result cannot be guaranteed.

Wood Grain

Maple, rosewood, and ash are common woods found in guitars that can vary with respect to natural grain pattern. This can change the appearance of an instrument but is no indicator of build quality.

Minutiae

Many of the high-end instruments we sell are handmade. This means that, at various stages of construction, details like binding can acquire normal imperfections.
